The St. Michael School Advisory Board is an organization of 11 members, which acts as an advisory board to the pastor and principal. As outlined by the Archdiocese of Chicago, Office of Catholic Education, its responsibilities are:

• To develop, formulate, and adopt policies that will help St. Michael School to reach its goals.
• To act as the public relations arm of the school.
• To review and advise on the annual school budget; to set tuition rates

• To participate in evaluation processes that are required by the Office of Catholic Education.
• To collaborate with the pastor in hiring the principal.
